I made biscuits with sausage gravy with homefries & onions for Breakfast this morning, one of my favorites and yeah, no desire to have any of it. Had to have my husband come in and taste it to make sure it was ok... he and my boys enjoyed it.

Good luck to everyone getting their sleeves today and this week. Wishing you all a speedy recovery. Today I begin day 8 of this pre-op liquid diet. It has been really challenging but I'm glad to say I have not cheated. In 7 days, it will be my turn, my second chance for a better life. Let's do this....

After everything (I started on my Mother's birthday 9/25) I have surgery March 31st. I am excited, hungry (liquid diet), and now really scared. I've wanted it since September and now that its a reality I am really scared.

@@amchurch12000 no need to be scared. You've been cleared and your doc knows what they are doing. You will be tender and don't be afraid to call your doc. Just keep your eyes on the prize!

I trust my doctor but I just remember when I had surgery on my wrist for carpal tunnel just waking up in pain.

I thought I was going to be a March sleever, but my Surgery is scheduled for April 1st! I'm on day 6 of the pre-op diet...mine is just low carb, not liquid, so I'm not hungry at all. I have little mini moments of panic realizing that my last glass of wine, my last Italian Pasta meal....is behind me for a good long time if not forever. I started this on August 28th, so I'm really just SO EXCITED! Praying for all of you that are going in this week. xo

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
